my gilded age

Chapter 642 "Parallel World" VS "33 Days", Bai is a scumbag

People generally make some mistakes, such as the famous empiricism, but sometimes, if some situations go beyond empiricism, that is to say, no one believes in experience, which is a bad idea.

Bai Shiqiu is such a celebrity, such an awesome character, but this "Parallel World" is still not optimistic by the senior members of our Red Star, including Huayi, and many friends.

In the Red Star base area, everyone had a meeting together.

"I said, Lao Bai, what is this new movie of yours? I really can't understand it." Zhang Mo narrowed his eyes, but what he said resonated with many seniors.

"Well, there is indeed something strange about it." Zhang Chen also has some... hard to say.

"Actually, this movie is very thoughtful..." Shen Teng, as one of the leading actors, is also struggling internally. "What are you talking about?"

Ma Li couldn't stand it anymore, "What's going on with you? What's going on! Why can't Lao Bai understand this film? Isn't it just talking about a physical phenomenon?"

Bai Shiqiu felt like he was in a denouncement meeting, but Ma Li was so supportive of him, she was really a good classmate, and he didn't deserve to cast her in the role.

but……

"Then, what's going on with this physical phenomenon?"

"Yes, Ma Li, tell us all."

"It seems to be related, but here... Ma Li, come on."

Faced with these problems, Ma Li's voice was still in a whimpering state just now, but now...

"Oh~ I really know it, I know it very well, but I just won't tell you, huh!" She said shyly.

Why don't you tell me? I just don't understand.

It was embarrassing for a time.

Even Bai Shiqiu's most die-hard supporter is like this, what can Lao Bai do?
"Actually, when the movie comes out, everyone should understand everything." What Bai Shiqiu said, is the romantic movie not finished yet?
In fact, it has passed the review, but he still feels that there is something wrong with it, and besides him and Zhou Shen, there is no one else who has actually watched the whole film, because this film is a very secret relationship between them. It was cut out in state.

The movie had to be kept secret because the real selling point of the movie was the weirdness of the plot.

Bai Shiqiu is actually very confident, but his friends and elders are really...

It was true that during the filming, there were some things that I really couldn’t understand.

Along the way, everyone followed Bai Shiqiu and made many movies. Many of them were difficult to understand and very brain-burning, but the one at the moment is definitely the weirdest one that everyone recognized.

During the filming, many scenes were shot repeatedly, which is okay. As for the lines, they were fine-tuned many times. The key is that there were no lines in the first place, but the requirements for the actors were very strange.

For example, in the first line, the line says, OK, passed.

So, let’s go to the next one. The lines are roughly the same, but there must be some differences. This difference is not random and has a certain direction.

With this request, the actors were taken in a daze.

Shen Teng, he doesn't dare to say anything now. After filming, he felt that all his previous scenes were in vain.

In this case, it’s up to everyone what to do.

"Forget it about National Day. It's hard for your movie to get high box office. We all can't understand it. How do you expect the fans to understand it?" Zhang Mo is a guy who dares to speak up.

Bai Shiqiu retorted: "Actually, you haven't seen everything yet. Moreover, don't underestimate the fans, you must believe in the people."

Everyone wanted to laugh, what this guy Baek Shi Qiu said was very high-level.

At this time, Wang Zhongjun had to speak. He felt that the time was ripe, "We all know about Brother Bai's peerless talent, and I, Mr. Wang, admire him very much, but right now, there are too many disputes in the industry. The gang of people in Oulant Club are not easy to deal with. In the summer, we won a big victory. Of course, this is all due to the wise leadership of Brother Bai. Just look at the opponent. What about "The Favorite", and "Guan Yunchang", one after another hit the box office, we all laughed, and the Battle of the Bird's Nest also beat the others, Bai Laodi is awesome, the world knows it. But, this time on National Day Later, the soldiers are approaching and it’s really difficult to deal with. Why don’t we hide for a while and arrange this movie...this...for the future?"

Listening to this, it makes so much sense, and everyone nodded.

Bai Shiqiu was really helpless, "You guys, let me tell you, although this film is an experimental film and a small film, I am also confident..."

"We know you are confident, but let's leave it to November. November is good." Zhang Mo seemed to have already made this plan.

"That's right! This is a good arrangement." Wang Zhongjun immediately praised it.

Needless to say about others.

What's happening here?
"You guys! You guys! It's all agreed upon!" Bai Shiqiu still didn't understand anything.

Everyone didn't blush and even exchanged a few words.

"Old Bai, it's okay. We haven't stopped you from innovating, but now, the world is dangerous!"

"That's right, you guys still have to eat, provide for a house, and support your wife and children. If a movie that is being promoted is blocked... we are not from the Outland Club after all."

"Yes, November is not bad. Now the Lunar New Year period has been extended long enough."

In Bai Shiqiu's opinion, the revolutionary nature of the older members of this group of guys has become less and less. The original aggressiveness and fearless temperament have faded a lot.

But it's normal. They are all very wealthy now, and of course their considerations are different from what they were back then. Bai Shiqiu really doesn't blame them. On the contrary, it's an honor to make movies as willfully as he does.

In other words, there are actually two types of people who can really do whatever they want in society. One type is the one who has settled down, has nothing to lose, and has nothing to lose. The other type is the top one. I have If you have money, power and resources, you will succeed no matter what you do, and you have nothing to worry about if you fail.

Bai Shiqiu now belongs to the latter, so he is not harsh on his partners, and...

"..." Zhou Shen cast a strange look, and the subtext was, 'You should have arrived a long time ago.'

Bai Shiqiu didn't say anything, but the matter was settled anyway, but at this time.

"Lao Bai, I absolutely support you!"

Who else could it be but Mary?

"I, I know." Lao Bai trembled a little.

"Old Bai!" Ma Li's voice and her eyes.

"I really know." He was even more trembling.

The status of these two people... Needless to say, the Red Star base was full of laughter again.

……

"Old Bai, don't blame the brothers."

"Old Zhou, how could I blame them?"

"Lao Bai, look, just watch the movie "The Favorite" during the summer season."

"Okay, I have to admit, the photo was really thoughtful."

"How was the box office?" "It was very popular."

"Then it's over."

"Okay, don't give me mental health care, I understand."

Afterwards, Bai Shiqiu and Zhou Shen had a chat. Zhou Shen knew the movie best, and he thought it was pretty good, but he was not sure whether it would achieve good results. After all, this movie was too groundbreaking.

This chat is actually to tell Bai Shiqiu that our Red Star team has not yet reached the state where people's hearts are broken and the team is difficult to lead, so don't worry too much.

Bai Shiqiu said that he understood.

As for the example of "The Favorite", it is clear that this movie, Bai Shiqiu has to say, is indeed not a bad movie. Almost all the actors' acting skills are above the standard, and it also focuses on the AIDS problem in rural areas. , all big names, and the story is quite interesting.

Unfortunately, the box office was really underwhelming.

The movie "Guan Yunchang" in the summer movie was relatively bad. It was quite normal that it was a hit. Especially the senior brother Jiang Wen in the movie. When he saw Bai Shiqiu, he was a little embarrassed. He said that this movie was his previous movie. I was shooting because money was tight at that time.

Who hasn’t had a hard time?
The hit of "Favorite" is relatively unexpected. A good movie is not accepted by the market, that is, it is not accepted by movie fans.

In fact, many of the satires in the movie are quite spicy and subtle.

The whole village is infected with the fever, which is AIDS, but in the end, some people are still making money. Why do they make money?

Selling coffins.

This matter, magnified, is quite meaningful.

Capital is meant to extract the last remaining value. . .

Well, most people don’t think so.

However, despite this, Bai Shiqiu gave it a thumbs up. After all, it was starring Senior Sister Zhang, but she still threw her hat in the ring.

Even the box office is not as high as "Guan Yunchang". You know, "Guan Yunchang" was criticized as "Three Kingdoms version of people on the road to embarrassment".

The majority of movie fans are still very powerful and creative.

What a resemblance. The story of Guan Yun, who passed five levels and killed six generals, was filmed to make the thief embarrassed. Isn't this a person in an awkward situation?
Moreover, combined with Zhang Zhao's previous confession to Shi Qiu, why didn't the light show the person in the awkward position?
The relationship was shot in a Three Kingdoms version.

It's interesting to think about it, but at the moment, Bai Shiqiu is actually not being bothered.

"Painted Skin 2" is ready to be released during the Lunar New Year, and there is also a heartwarming little movie "Cinema for the Blind" in the middle. Although Bai Shiqiu does not star in it, he is participating after all. In addition, during the Spring Festival, "Time" The film is about to be released.

"Time" is the Chinese version of "Time Traveler". We have finished filming this film long ago, but Curtis...

"What? Have you finished filming?"

At first, Curtis was so surprised on the phone that he couldn't believe it.

The one who was even more surprised was actually Bai Shiqiu. It was even harder for him to believe that the casting process in Hollywood hadn't been completed yet.

The two movies that were agreed upon at the beginning were better than the one that was made at once. They were agreed upon, but in the end, you just left it like this?

Finally, Bai Shiqiu had a deeper understanding of the matter of 'grinding foreign workers'.

Fortunately, under the pressure of our efficient socialist film workers, they were able to produce the film.

Curtis also said that our team this time is extremely efficient, which is impressive.

What else can Bai Shiqiu say?
So, we agreed to release it on February 2th next year. This movie is actually about love.

In this case, it seems that my film, "Parallel World", is scheduled for November, which is okay.

It's just... these guys, wait and see, I, Bai Shiqiu's film is coming out, I'm going to scare you!
Friends who are willing to let themselves go. . .

Okay, it's not serious, just for fun.

See who your opponents are.

Ugh?
"33 Days"?
This film has quite a story. Originally, Bai Shiqiu was very determined to win this film, but something went wrong in the end.

I don’t know why, but Bao Jingjing, the author of the original work, refused to cooperate with Red Star and insisted on making this film with Boss Jia and others.

So weird, really weird.

Forget it, forget about it, Bai Shiqiu said in his heart, without Bao Jingjing, wouldn't the earth stop spinning?

And the rest...

"Hello!Mr. Tree".

Hey, this is a good movie, and it stars Bao Qiang. It can be said to be the pinnacle of Bao Qiang's acting skills.

But this film... is not a rival, not a rival at all.

Bai Shiqiu took a look and found that although November is now called the Lunar New Year period, the real opponents are these two, and the more powerful blockbusters are mainly in December, which is the real Lunar New Year period.

For example, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is a powerful blockbuster that Lao Mouzi worked hard to create. It is said that the budget is recorded in US dollars, with a unit of [-] million.

Boss Jia’s main film "Painting on the Wall" is also released in December.

These are our main opponents in "Painted Skin 2".

The main competitor of "Parallel World" should be this "33 Days".

However, between these two movies, Bai Shiqiu feels that there is no need for one to compete with the other, because the types of movies are different and they are very different.

One is a chick romance movie and the other is a sci-fi horror movie.

It really doesn't matter much.

However, something unexpected happened to Bai Shiqiu.

An inexplicable piece of gossip broke out.

"Bai Shiqiu, he is a scumbag!"

The person who said this is none other than Bao Jingjing!

　thanks for your support!Thank you!
　　Well, I went to get some medicine today, so I'm a little late. I'm really sorry and ask for your understanding.
